Today we're discussing focused ultrasound, a noninvasive therapeutic technology that has the potential to revolutionize healthcare. We have Neal Kassell, MD, founder of the Focused Ultrasound Foundation, joining us to discuss this exciting innovation. Focused ultrasound uses multiple beams of ultrasound energy to target specific areas in the body with precision, sparing adjacent normal tissue. This technology has over 170 clinical indications in various stages of development and can be used to treat a wide variety of medical disorders. One example is in the treatment of essential tremor, where abnormal nerve cells in the brain can be destroyed without incisions or drugs.
